- Title
Social Group Asylum Claims: A Second Look at the New Visibility Requirement.
- Authors
Soucek, Brian
- Abstract
In this article the author discusses an article by Fatma E. Marouf regarding a worrisome progress in asylum law. It mentions that the article demonstrates the danger of the social visibility requirement for asylum applicants such as lesbian and gay refugees. He argues that the attempts to contest social visibility via executive action, judicial intervention, and legislation have been misguided as social visibility just needs to be correctly understood and not to be discarded.
